A very nice and well appointed unit on a scenic peaceful property. Wonderful hosts. As accommodation it can’t be beat. We were travelling by bus. The closest bus is from Broadway, about 2.5 km away. Limited service but still okay. Taxi from town is about 15 pounds. So, a car is preferable but not absolutely necessary. Ensure to visit Pembroke castle and walk the coastal path from Broad Haven. Hope this helps.

I stayed at the property with my wife and our Cockerpoo dog whilst our son was on his football team end of season tour in Broadhaven. The property was beautiful, very well fitted out and very clean, we had a warm welcome from the host who asked if we were ok with their son having a bbq with guests in the Saturday evening in their adjoining property, and even suggested we join them for a drink. Great location, lovely property and very welcoming hosts. Highly recommended!
